威斯康星州三名选民向法院提起诉讼，要求推翻州选举委员会的指导意见，以便已投出缺席选票的选民能够作废旧票并重新投票 1。
这些选民的诉讼针对的是州选举委员会7月9日以4:2投票通过的禁令 1。该禁令阻止了已投票给已退选候选人的选民请求新选票的权利 1。据悉，近91000人已经提交了缺席选票 1。
诉讼要求法院阻止威斯康星选举委员会向约2000名地方选举工作人员发布该指导意见 1。选举委员会的投票结果显示，一名民主党委员与三名共和党委员投票赞成这项禁令 1。威斯康星州民主党支持这起诉讼 1。
威斯康星州初选定于8月11日进行 1。
Three Wisconsin voters backed by the state Democratic Party filed a lawsuit Thursday challenging the state Elections Commission's ban on ballot replacement 1. The plaintiffs are seeking a court order that would allow voters who have already submitted absentee ballots to invalidate them and vote again 1.
The case centers on recent changes to the Democratic presidential race. Lee Goodwin and Sara Rodriguez withdrew from the race last week, while David Crowley withdrew on July 8 before re-entering the race 1. The lawsuit aims to give voters who cast absentee ballots for candidates no longer in contention an opportunity to support remaining candidates 1.
Approximately 91,000 absentee ballots have already been returned 1. The Wisconsin Elections Commission voted 4-2 on July 9 to prohibit voters from requesting new ballots, with one Democratic commissioner and three Republican commissioners voting in favor of the ban 1. The lawsuit seeks to prevent the commission from distributing this guidance to approximately 2,000 local election officials 1.
The August 11 primary election is approaching 1.
